Sure enough, after a while, Tang Hongbo hurried over, and looked at the unconscious Chen Xi on the ground.
"What's going on?"
"Designer Duan, everyone has seen it. You attacked us first, how can you do this? Sister Xixi, she is not feeling well today, and yet you still hit her. If anything happened to her, would you be able to take responsibility? " Li Wenqi suddenly interrupted Duan Wenyu's explanation.
Tang Hongbo's expression became even colder as he bent down and hugged Chen Xi.
"Designer Duan, go hand in your resignation letter." After Tang Hongbo finished speaking, he carried Chen Xi and walked out of the crowd.
Chen Xi looked at Duan Wenyu who was behind her and laughed complacently.
She also knew that she was very despicable, but against someone like Duan Wenyu, she had no choice but to use despicable means.
Duan Wenyu looked at Chen Xi who was carried away by Tang Hongbo, her eyes full of anger. She never thought that she would actually frame her in front of Tang Hongbo.
Even if her nails were to dig into the flesh of her palms, she wouldn't feel any pain. She felt that if she were to slice Chen Xi into a thousand pieces, it would be difficult for her to quell the hatred in her heart.
Tang Hongbo carried Chen Xi all the way back to her own office and gently placed her on the sofa.
"Does it hurt?" Tang Hongbo gently caressed her red and swollen face.
Chen Xi still had her eyes closed, pretending to be unconscious.
"It's just a show. How could I possibly let myself be injured?"
Hearing that, Chen Xi's plan had been seen through, she could not continue acting, and leisurely opened her eyes, sat up and snorted.
"Don't you know that you have to do the entire act?"
Tang Hongbo saw that she was being honest and couldn't help but find it funny as he sat beside her.
"What happened to you? How did he manage to get started? "
Chen Xi turned her head.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, he could only patiently console her.
"Wenyu, although her personality is a bit extreme, she doesn't have a bad personality. If she hits you, didn't you hit her as well? "Alright, don't be angry."
Chen Xi looked at him, was he speaking up for Duan Wenyu? She couldn't help but become even angrier.
"Is that so? "Her nature is not bad. If I set her up, my nature will be bad, right?" Chen Xi coldly snorted.
"Little girl, why are you so stubborn? Is that what I mean? I know that you framed her, but didn't you still help you? " Tang Hongbo rubbed her hair and said lovingly.
"You can help her." Chen Xi said ungratefully.
Tang Hongbo lowered his head and laughed.
"You seem quite skilled at destroying the bridge after crossing the river."
Chen Xi thought for a while.
"Are you really going to fire her?"
"I will never be able to keep up with a promise. Do you think I will joke around?" Tang Hong said seriously.
"But you clearly know that I framed her, and you still insist on expelling her?" Chen Xi asked.
"Of course, whether it's a trap or not, it's a fact that she hit you. Hitting you is equivalent to hitting me, so how could I possibly forgive her?"
Chen Xi's heart suddenly warmed. She endured the smile from the corner of her mouth and tried her best to pretend to be cold.
"Dumb Monarch."
Tang Hongbo chuckled.
"Mm. For you, I would be willing to become a foppish lord."
"You mean, I'm a prodigal vixen?" Chen Xi said.
"That's right, to be my little fox spirit." Tang Hongbo said as he looked at her lovingly.
She blushed and spat at him.
"Alright, now we should be happy." Tang Hongbo looked at her gently.
"Get out of the way, I'm going out." Chen Xi reached out and pushed him away.
"Wait, your face is still swollen. I'll get someone to bring some ice cubes." Tang Hongbo said as he stood up.
"No need, I …"
"Be good, be good." Tang Hongbo said gently.
Tang Hongbo took the ice cubes and slowly put it on her face.
Seeing his gentle actions, Chen Xi's heart was slowly filled with emotions.
He used to be like the moonlight, illuminating her direction, but now he was like the sun, warming her.
She didn't know which one was the real him.
Perhaps it was really him, but her attitude was different.
He was like the sun, warming her heart.
"You make me feel like a criminal, looking at me like that." Tang Hongbo lowered his head and suddenly said.
Chen Xi's face froze, she had just been possessed a moment ago, that's why she felt like the sun, this was clearly a hooligan.
Chen Xi pushed him away, then quickly left his office.
Tang Hongbo looked at the ice cubes that she had spilled all over the ground and couldn't help but shake his head.
No matter what she did or said, he would let her spoil him. This was what he was thinking at the moment.
With such a ruckus, Duan Wenyu and Chen Xi could be considered to be completely at war.
The reason why Chen Xi did not tell Tang Hongbo about them was because she wanted to let her feel the pain bit by bit.
When Chen Xi returned to her office, she was especially happy.
"What are you doing? So happy? " Chen Xi could not help but ask.
"Sister Xixi, you don't know how domineering the CEO was when she hugged you in front of everyone just now. She was so envious of them." Li Wenqi said with her starry eyes.
Chen Xi pursed her lips.
"Tyrannical Ambition leaked out? Can this word still be used like this? " However, she had indeed forgotten one thing, she was only concerned with making Duan Wenyu look bad, and had pushed herself to the heart of the struggle once again.
Rumors had already spread everywhere, and now, even if they jumped into the Yellow River, they wouldn't be able to wash away the rumors.
However, as if Li Wenqi didn't hear her words, she was still trapped in her own world, talking nonstop.
"CEO, that beautiful princess is really too handsome. You don't know how many girls are behind you after he carries you away. Their hearts are broken into pieces."
Chen Xi spread her hands.
"Blame me?"
"However, you and the CEO are too compatible, the couple is talking about you, Sister Xixi." Li Wenqi had been completely poisoned by Tang Hongbo.
Chen Xi couldn't help but attack her.
"What a perfect match, this is more like a wolf, tiger, and leopard. How much benefits did you receive from him, speaking up for him like that?"
"No, I'm speaking the truth. Otherwise, why did you call me earlier and go call the president?" Li Wenqi muttered softly.
"That, that is because... Forget it, is there a need to explain it to you? " Chen Xi said incoherently.
Actually, the reason why Tang Hongbo came so quickly after she fainted was because the moment Chen Xi entered her office, she had told Li Wenqi in a low voice.
"Call the CEO if there's anything special."
This was what happened after that.
"Alright, the gossip is over. Can we get down to business?" Chen Xi rolled his eyes at her.
"Hee hee, of course, please give your instructions." Li Wenqi replied obediently.
Towards this assistant of hers, she was rather satisfied. It was because she liked gossiping sometimes, but this was also her adorable point.
Looking at her lively work every day, she always felt in her heart that she looked a little like the Duan Wenzhuo of the past.
He was also trying his best to live a good life every day. But now, such a life was already gone forever.
"Sister Xixi, what's wrong? Isn't there something you want to say? " Li Wenqi's reminder interrupted her train of thoughts.
She came back to her senses.
"Right, the company needs to release a new design next week. Help me prepare it and see if there are any Opal among the jewelry."
Li Wenqi said in shock.
"Opal? The one who sets all the beauties of gems together, the opal gems? "
Chen Xi nodded.
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
"Wow, I've only seen such a beautiful gem on TV and never seen it real before. But I heard that this gem is very rare, would our company have one like that?" Li Wenqi was puzzled.
"That's why I need you to go and take a look." Chen Xi shook her head.
"Well, are you going to do a new design with this jewel next week?" Li Wenqi asked.
"Okay, let's see if there are any." Chen Xi said.
"Alright."
The biggest jewellery supplier in the country is not the Tang family but the Wang family.
Therefore, when Li Wenqi came back to tell her that she didn't have a gem like Opal, she should have thought of it a long time ago.
But she had designed a necklace, and its pendant had to be made of opal, because she wanted everyone who brought it to be beautiful.
But very quickly, the matter of her looking for the opal gem reached Duan Wenyu's ears.
"I heard you're looking for Opal?" Seeing Chen Xi coming out from the bathroom, Duan Wenyu asked as she washed her hands.
"Designer Duan is really well-informed, huh. I just said yesterday that I would help you, and today you already know about it? Those who don't know, do you think that you have spies by my side? " Chen Xi sneered.
Maybe because of what happened yesterday, Duan Wenyu's vigilance towards her had suddenly increased by a lot, and she could only ridicule her by not saying anything.
"Why do you have to say that, designer Chen, I have a memory after what happened yesterday, you should blame me too, I shouldn't have said that to you, if you like Hongbo too, why don't we compete fairly, what?" Duan Wenyu had no choice but to muster her strength to face Duan Wenyu's sudden goodwill.
"Fair competition? Do you think you're qualified to compete fairly with me? Wasn't yesterday enough to explain everything? " Chen Xi did not appreciate it.
They looked at themselves in the mirror. Duan Wenyu was not angry, but she was.
"To show my sincerity, I am willing to give you Opal. I think it's pointless for us to continue this way. How about we compete fairly? "
Chen Xi turned and looked at her.
"Opal? You have Opal? "
Duan Wenyu casually smiled.
"Yes, I do, and I know that there are no more than three people in A City who have Opal. It is itself a very expensive gem, and I am only one third of that, even Hongbo doesn't have it. As a jewelry designer, do you not even know about this?" Duan Wenyu asked.
"Of course I know. Opal is a precious gem, but how did you get one?" Chen Xi asked curiously.
